The Cowichan Valley transit situation remains in a stalemate, after 4.5 months with no reasonable movement to end the strike. What does that say about the decision makers’ gross abdication and disregard for the public good?

Longest Bus Strike in BC History
here is no excuse whatsoever, for BC govt refusing to address adequate public transit in B.C. and on Vancouver Island. Today is day 138 of the bus strike in Cowichan Valley on Vancouver Island,
June 26, 2025 at 7:22 PM
Prior to the 2008 governance change at TransLink , Vancouver had 3 councillors on the Board.
Vancouver-UBC has about 50% of the regional transit ridership with only 25 % of the population.

Transit Spiral in Metro Vancouver BC
May 28, 2025 at 10:48 PM
Overall the accessible rate in Metro Vancouver is around 85% of all bus stops
It is way lower at other locations in BC
February 25, 2025 at 11:50 PM
The 13 trolley bus routes are the most accessible. at over 90 %
Trolley bus routes Nos. 3, 5, 6 have all their bus stops accessible.
For wheelchairs, walkers, baby strollers
The other 10 routes ( Nos. 4, 7,8, 10,14,17,19,20, 41 ) have about 40 bus stops that are still not accessible.

Not much in Metro Vancouver!! We need way better governance and funding of TransLink to get better results. There seem to be systemic problems in how public transit is decided, provided, and funded in British Columbia.
